What our clients say

There’s a reason Culligan of Central Ontario is the best water treatment company in Central Ontario with over 4.2-Stars Google Reviews.

We recently had a water system installed and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Matthew, the sales representative, was knowledgeable and easy to work with, and Kyle, the installer, was professional and efficient—the installation was quick and seamless.The improvement in our water quality has been a huge difference. We can now safely drink our water using the RO system, which wasn’t possible before. Our water is no longer yellow, and it no longer leaves a residue on your skin after showering.What really stood out was Matthew’s follow-up. He came back to check the water quality and make sure everything was set up properly, and he’s always been quick to respond and incredibly helpful whenever we’ve had questions.Overall, an excellent experience from start to finish. Highly recommend!
I’m a new homeowner and recently had Matthew from Culligan come in for a consultation. From start to finish, he delivered an excellent presentation. He was engaging, knowledgeable, and made the whole experience enjoyable—there were even quite a few laughs, which made it feel comfortable and genuine. My mother was especially impressed.Matthew explained everything clearly, which made it an easy decision for us to move forward with both the water softener and drinking water options. What really stood out was how much he cares about the work he does—it shows in how he presents and connects with his clients.We’ve only been using the service for a few weeks, but so far, we’ve been very happy with everything.Matthew, keep up the great work. Your professionalism, knowledge, and presentation style make a big difference, and it truly reflects well on the company.
When we moved into our new home, there was a Culligan water system already in place but we didn't know exactly how it was being used. We also noted that the water had a very distinct, unpleasant odour. We contacted Culligsn and were assigned Matthew. He was very pleasant, knowledgeable and explained everything clearly when he came to visit us on our initial consultation. After several water tests and reviewing our existing system , he offered us suggestions to make the system more effective. We had high levels of iron and Matthew proposed an iron filter.On install day, Matthew even came back with the technician, Kyle, who was also knowledgeable and efficient, to make sure we understood how the system was running. He also set up the systems for regeneration and treatment levels.About a month after the system was installed, Matthew came back, for a third time, to retest the water and make sure that the system was functioning as intended. Matthew was again, very thorough and explained the tests he was conducting and showed the comparison between our current and initial levels of iron and total dissolved solids. He was also very hands on and emptied out the water softener tank of the previous owners' salt that had created a sludge and cleaned out the tank to further improve water treatment.Matthew is very professional, knowledgeable and helpful and has been available whenever we had questions.Thank you, Matthew!
Had great experience with consultation and the installation. Matthew was very knowledgeable and tested our water to find the exact solution we needed. After the installation of the water softer and the RO system he kept in touch to ensure everything was working fine and visited us few weeks after to retest our water. All questions were answered promptly and was always available via phone. Since the installation we are using less soap for laundry and dishwasher. We also drink more water as the water taste much better than what it used to be.Overall great experience
Mathew was great. Very pleased with everything.
Matt, thank you so much for your outstanding services today. You always go out of your way to make sure that you have covered our needs, in all ways possible. The peace of mind that you have provided us with over the years, is insurmountable.
Matthew was great, explained all about good water and drinking water. Great system well installed and explain
Matt is such an amazing person. All through our journey of having the culligan RO system and water softener installed in our home he was very helpful in ensuring we understood how the system works as well as supporting us in responding to our questions. I would recommend a 100%
Had a routine checkup on our water after our initial installation with Matt, he came right away and my minor questions were answered. Our water has had a 100% improvement since our Culligan filters were installed.
Happy with the service and MATTHEW helped a lot from start to finish including coordinating other people. He went the extra km (as metric country) too. He was very responsive and made me feel very good about Culligan as a company ... that I discovered and only knew about as a brand of water :o)
Extremely happy with my Culligan water softener purchase, set up, and follow up. I reached out to the company. Matt promptly came to my house ran some tests and advised what would work for my water situation. Within a week it was professionally installed. Three months passed, Matt reached out to me asking if there was a time he could come and check on things. He arrived when he said he would did some tests and made a couple of adjustments. I was very impressed with this.Great company and great people! Thank you.
Matthew Webb provided great service, our water softener have stopped working and he was prompt at setting up delivery and installation of a new one. The plumbing was a bit of a disaster and the installer did a great job rerouting it and cleaning it up. Insulation was quick and seamless. Matthew did follow up testing of the water and things are great now. It was also great service when I arranged for the salt delivery, fast and seamless. They are very professional and provide great service.
Matt fixed us up with our water system. We had a couple hiccups after installation but they were taken care of and Matt came back to check everything and all is working very well Thank You
Matt has helped us alot with our water system over the years and service and water quality has been excellent! Thank you Culligan and Matt!
Matthew was very knowledgeable in the products and tested the before and after installation. After the installation I was still using a brita water filter jug. He asked me if I was still using it, I said we are.Matthew tested it and it turned out I didn’t need that anymore after testing it because the carbon level was higher than the tap ! I ended up recycling it after he came and tested it!
We had a few hiccups with our new water softener installation, but the team made it right. Matt in sales was upfront and helpful throughout the process, and Daniel, the technician, was professional, knowledgeable, and got everything working perfectly.
We had a great experience with Culligan and our sales rep Matt. From the first appointment with all our questions, from testing the water, to working with us on what’s best for our home, and a follow-up visit after the water softener was installed. The install process was simple and efficient. Matt was informative, honest, helpful and most kind.
I am a repeat client and I am very happy with the service I received from Matthew and the installer Kyle both very pleasant and professional. 5* rating
Matt was awesome to deal with the helping with our water softener. Definitely recommend getting a water softener with Culligan.
Matthew was fantastic. Answered all my questions and concerns. He's very knowledgeable and dependable. Installation was quick and painless. Definitely recommend.
Had a great experience dealing with Matthew for our whole house filtration system. He’s very responsive, extremely professional and passionate about what he does. I will definitely refer him to my family and friends.
We had a fantastic experience with Matt Tjart from Culligan Water. Matt was our initial point of contact, and he was professional, responsive, and extremely knowledgeable from the very beginning. He took the time to walk us through our options for a whole-home water softener and reverse osmosis system and made the entire process feel easy and stress-free.Kyle handled the installation, and he did an excellent job. The install was clean, efficient, and very well done. He was respectful of our home and made sure everything was working perfectly before he left.We’ve already noticed a huge improvement in our water quality and couldn’t be happier with the results. I will absolutely be recommending Matt, Kyle, and the Culligan team to all of my family, friends, and clients. If you’re considering a water softener or RO system, they’re the team to call!
Mathew our salesman and Daniel our installer hooked us up with a softener system for our outdated failing one. Water is nice and clean and soft again .
If you have an existing water softener and are uncertain if it needs to be replaced, I highly recommend Matt from Culligan as he provided a stress-free and informative venue in addressing all of my concerns.
Thoroughly enjoyed working with Matt to have a softner system and water filtration system installed for me. He was professional and very informative when explaining how everything worked. He even walked me thru a phone call I made to him to help trouble shoot a situation on a Sunday afternoon!! Truly feel confident having him as a “Culligan Man”!
We are truly delighted with the water softener we received from Culligan. There has been a significant improvement in the quality of our water. We previously had a poor experience with other providers in the area; however, Mr. Matt presented the right solution for our needs.Although the pricing is bit higher compared to some competitors, we genuinely appreciated the excellent service and the detailed explanation provided by Mr. Matt. Their products are compact, fit well in smaller spaces, and operate very efficiently.Yes we do recommend them.
Matthew is a very knowledgeable, honest and courteous water consultant who quickly diagnosed the problem with my water system. It is a plumbing issue which does not require replacing my current water softener with Culligan equipment which is saving me thousands of dollars. Matthew is willing to confer with my plumber to ensure that calcium does not pose a problem in my water lines, and left painter’s tape on the piping that needs to be changed. Matthew is a gold medal professional and I would not hesitate to have Culligan service my home anytime.
my impression with your company is outstanding from my first contact with Matt to the installation has been terrific unfortunately it took you and me some time to agree on a date but our meeting was great you explained everything and tested the water and surveyed for the placement of the equipment all your efforts are greatly appreciated your installer Kyle did an outstanding job everything was done neatly I had to leave before he was finished but he took the time to explain everything to Cody and I have had nothing but excellent service from start to finish you and Kyle represented the company very well thank you again and if down the road I have any questions I feel I will be looked after
We had a great experience with Jason K at Culligan Water Barrie. From start to finish, the service was professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Jason took the time to explain the water treatment options clearly and made sure everything was installed and working perfectly.Culligan Water Barrie provides high-quality water solutions, and the customer service truly stands out. If you’re looking for dependable water filtration services in Barrie, I highly recommend Jason K and the Culligan Water Barrie team. Outstanding service and great results!
We had a great experience with Matt from Culligan purchasing and right through the installation of our tankless reverse osmosis water system. Matt checked in and came to make sure we didn’t have any questions after installation and that the system was running well. We couldn’t ask for more.
We recently upgraded our home’s water system with Culligan’s water softener and filtration setup, and the experience has been outstanding from start to finish. Matthew did an excellent job guiding us through the selection process, helping us choose the ideal system for our needs. His professionalism, product knowledge, and support after the purchase have been exceptional.Before installing the system, our stainless‑steel water bottle would develop an unpleasant smell after just one day. Since switching to Culligan, there is no smell at all, and the water tastes absolutely fantastic. The difference is truly noticeable.We’ve also experienced improvements beyond drinking water, our hair and skin feel much softer, which has been a welcome bonus we didn’t fully expect.Overall, we couldn’t be happier with the quality of the product and the exceptional service we received. Highly recommended!
Matthew from Culligan was fantastic to work with. He was kind, responsive, flexible and extremely helpful from start to finish. He clearly laid out all my options and answered all of my questions, was resourceful and solution-oriented, and followed through exactly as promised. A genuinely great end-to-end service experience — highly recommend.
I would like to thank Matthew from Culligan water for his advice on our water issues as he suggested we get a uv light and a water filter which took care of our problems would highly recommend him for being very professional and friendly.
My experience with MATTHEW was fantastic. We contacted him through the office, and he immediately got back to us after our water filtration system started to act up after 20 plus years. Matthew sent me pics of what he had in mind, my wife and I looked them over and chose the system he suggested. He kept in touch throughout the whole process, including a follow up after the installation. His tech that installed it was also great, performing the job and leaving the place just as he had found it. We have always dealt with Culligan for our water filtration system, including replacement filters. We also have dealt with them for our water Sofener and the salt delivered every couple of months. Thanks Matthew for all your attention to our needs and all details in getting the job done correctly.
Very friendly and helpful staff. Easy to go in and pick up the part I needed. Tons of parking and easily accessible location.
I had been wanting to improve the water in my home for years, but it wasn’t until I saw how much our hard water was impacting our kitchen and bathroom renovations that I finally decided to upgrade to soft water with Culligan. I’m so glad I did. The difference has been huge. No more water marks or hard water stains on our faucets, and everything (including the dishwasher) stays noticeably cleaner. My hair and skin have improved drastically since switching and don’t have to use half the conditioner bottle on my hair anymore.Working with Matthew made the whole process even better. He was kind, funny, and incredibly knowledgeable. He listened to my concerns, didn’t oversell, and simply educated me on what system would be best for my needs. Overall, such a great experience. I highly recommend Culligan, and especially Matthew!
Matthew was great and was present for the installation, making sure tech knew our requirments
Matthew was very informative. He came back after installation and there was a little issue with the water. He reset the system. Came back and tested the water and all good now. Excellent service. 😁👍
We had the pleasure of dealing with Matthew from Culligan. He was very nice, explained everything in detail and spent lots of time testing my water. He was very knowledgable and great at explaining every detail.He visited us after the install to re test the water which is a great service that most companies don’t do.I would highly recommend you deal with Matthew if you are sourcing a water system.
We chose Culligan primarily because they are willing and able to deliver and bring salt inside and put it in our tank. Matt was helpful with getting us set up. Thank you
Matthew is amazing- assisting the initial installation 2 years agoHe is still available for any support
One day recently I noticed our water was brown. Called Culligan and there were here within 2 days. Sample of our water was taken and it was very high with iron. Matthew was here the next day and suggested we get a Big Blue Filter. We had it installed, the next day Matthew dropped by to show me how to change the filter. He opened the filter and it was already brown from the iron.Thank you Matthew and all the staff for being prompt to resolve our water problem.
We were looking to cancel our service but Matthew came and tested our water and provided the best option for our needs. Old fashioned service which does happen much anymore. Daniel did an amazing job of the installation. Thank you to both for this and we will remain a loyal client with Culligan.
Great water so far!Matthew was super knowledgeable and provided great service.
We had a great experience with Culligan Barrie! Matthew, the sales representative, was amazing, knowledgeable, patient, and very helpful throughout the process. He also met our timelines and was extremely accommodating! Kyle, the installer, was professional, friendly, and efficient. Since the installation, our water tastes fantastic, and we’re so happy to have this system in our new home and thankful for the peace of mind! Highly recommend Culligan Barrie and their team!
Great experience. Old water softener was not working. Some highly knowledgeable staff were able to guide us in the proper direction. Now we have some solid water !! Not too solid tho now that there is less calcium in it!! Thanks Matthew for the guidance and support.
Matthew was my service techVery sufficient polite, cleans up after he is done and always on timeVery happy with his service

Water Softener FAQs

Culligan Water offers a full-service installation to make getting started with your new system even easier. Your trained Culligan Water expert will expertly connect your water softening system to the water supply, the drain and the salt-filled brine tank, and you’ll be all set. The average installation takes about 2-4 hours.

Watch: What to expect at Your Water Softener Installation

The price of a Culligan water softener will depend on the system as well as its features, efficiency, durability, capacity and more. Culligan Water offers flexible payment plans whether you choose to rent, purchase or finance. Schedule a free, in-home consultation today and a Culligan Water expert will help you determine what your home needs.

Water softeners work through basic chemistry. The main tank of water softening systems is filled with negatively charged resin beads. Meanwhile, hard water is caused by high amounts of calcium and magnesium, which are both positively charged molecules. As hard water pumps through a water softener, the calcium and magnesium are attracted to the resin beads and removed from your water.

To help determine the appropriate size for your water softener, your local Culligan Water expert will assess factors like the hardness of your water, household water usage and flow rate. Schedule a free, in-home consultation today to get custom recommendations based on your home’s needs.

If you’re dealing with the unfavorable effects of hard water — like dry skin and hair, limescale buildup around faucets and showerheads, soap scum on shower walls or too much wear and tear on your water-using appliances — you may need a water softener. That said, remember that not all systems were created equal. With Culligan Water, you can rest assured that you’ll get a full-service partner, quality products with durability and an established brand you can trust.
